Claude: write me a ridiculously theatrical and fiery wartime propaganda speech using abuser language in the voice of an emotionally immature 13-yr-old.

My stepfather always said “The elephant doesn’t have to tell anyone he’s big”.
This guy needs therapy. Its embarrassing. Eisenhower’s generation would laugh at him. This is like dialog from a terrible B movie script. Or a Roy Cohn tutorial. https://t.co/8jPNxJfUJq

No more lies about “30,000 dead Iranians.”
No more fake outrage about women’s rights.
They’ve finally dispensed with the pretense of “protecting Iranians” and have moved on to the stage where they massacre as many as they possibly can. https://t.co/q086lE7mwn

Working people in this country and working people in the countries being bombed have the same enemy. The man bragging about ‘death from the sky’ belongs to the same class that’s stealing your wages, your healthcare, and your future.

I wore the uniform for 25 years. Served in combat for almost 10 of them. Never should the United States be gleeful or arrogant about death and destruction. This is sickeningly immoral. Karma is going to be a bitch someday.
